Catherine, so great to see your story featured. I'm sure this will bring awareness of PN to so many people through your generous sharing of your story.
My best,

I agree Cora. I feel I must share my story in order to help others and to raise awareness among the medical community. One day in the future people may not have to suffer the way we have and those before us have. Research will continue into this horrendous condition. With PN at least we have made some developments in recent years thanks to those doctors who are keen to learn more and look outside the box. Pain has never been a subject which has been given much attention in med. schools.
It's good to see the various conferences around the world dedicated to Chronic Pain. I think it's getting bigger each year with more and more specialists becoming involved.
There has to be a brighter future for those suffering PN issues. I see the Pain Pathways magazine is now online. It has some good tips for those of us living with chronic pain.

Excellent
when so many would walk away and get on with their lives (and I wouldn't cast any aspersions at all for that) Wonderfully selfless, your story has got to help raise awareness Catherine. Thank you.
